Kennedy Center faces cancellations after Trump's name added

Season 2026 Episode 2 | 6m 50s

First, a takeover of leadership, then a renaming. Now, the Trump-Kennedy Center is facing canceled performances and a drop in overall ticket sales. Jeffrey Brown reports on the turmoil at one of the nation’s preeminent arts centers. It's for our series Art in Action, exploring the intersection of art and democracy as part of our CANVAS coverage.
